I've been in the GUI part of the form for a while now and it just keeps getting worse. People post an idea or thought and others put them down and tell them how much their ideas resemble crap. Or how much of an a** other members are. There is a complete lack of respect happing on this forum and I wish there was someone who would do something about it. I know it's only a few bad apples in the bunch but I wish they'd get weeded out.

Thanks

Just ignore the negativity. Carry on with your life like these people aren't bothering you. Their actions will speak for themselves, if they are indeed being disrespectful.

This isn't the real world, it's just a forum, so most importantly, try not to take too many people here seriously...

I don't take them seriously and I try to ignore it but I get get mad at times. I just wanted to bring it up incase the MacNN people didn't know it was an issue. I do like this forum, and I know some people are idiots, but some are just mean too. :

It's the reason why I quit theming.

The lack of respect for themers. People un-apologetically ripping off other themers.

People who have never themed before that act like they know best about themes AKA armchair themers.

I wont go into the impatient jerks. the "IF you don't hurry, I am going to put my OWN version out"

Just like I said, lack of respect.

People need to show a bit more respect for themers, and shoe a bit more appreciation and stop taking things for granted.

It gets really sickening sometimes.

It's been going on in here since the beginning though.
